Stories Along the Trail

Fun for the whole Family!

Sunday Sept. 22, 1 - 4 PM

(last departure from starting point at 3:15)

Its time for this special annual event! Costumed storytellers will be found along a trail, and enchant you as they tell you about the adventures of a mysterious Chimera who is looking for a home. You will hear how it just doesn’t work out to live with any of the creatures who it meets. And of course you will learn about the secret lives of all the creatures it meets... including bats, birds, a coyote and more! You will be left wondering what sort of being the Chimera is ... just wait till you find out!

Bring your family and friends to a unique storytelling event where you will be guided along a marked trail! It’s free and it’s fun, and it is enchanting!

... And it’s suitable for all ages.

(The trail loop is about a 1.5 km long.It’s gravel, but OK for strollers)

NB... the map was incorrect, fixed now.the entrance for Stories is at Salish Trail (NOT Sasamat)
